Abstract

Internet se dokazao kao plodno tlo za razvoj, artikulaciju i širenje novih neobičnih ideologija i zajednica zahvaljujući mogućnosti da svakom pojedincu pruži prostor za izražavanje svojih misli i povezivanje s ostalima u interesne grupacije, kao i zbog činjenice da je po prvi puta omogućio običnim pojedincima da se iskreno izraze u javnoj sferi kroz anonimno slanje svoje poruke nebrojenim ljudima diljem svijeta. Ovaj rad proučava dvije ideologije nastale u zadnjih nekoliko godina – Inceldom i Neomaskulinizam. Incel pokret promatra svijet kroz perspektivu konflikta između fizički atraktivnih i neatraktivnih osoba. Diskurs njegovih sljedbenika predstavlja unikatan primjer govora mržnje i apsurdne konstrukcije društvene zbilje. Neomaskulinizam je pokušaj artikulacije mnogih postojećih uvjerenja usmjerenih protiv prevladavajućih progresivnih i egalitarnih vrijednosti modernih Zapadnih društava. Sljedbenici Neomaskulinizma inspiraciju traže u romantiziranoj slici prošlosti. Obje se ideologije zbog svojih zamisli svrstavaju na krajnje rubni dio političkog spektra i ne postoje izvan online sfere.

Abstract (english)

Internet has proven itself to be fertile ground for the creation, articulation and dissemination of unusual new ideologies and communities due to its ability to provide space for every individual to express their thoughts and connect with others in groups bound by interests, as well as the fact that it allowed ordinary individuals to honestly express themselves in the public sphere by anonymously disseminating their message to countless people around the world. This thesis examines two ideologies that emerged in the last few years – Inceldom and Neomasculinity. Incel movement sees the world through a prism of conflict between physically attractive and unattractive people. A discourse of its followers represents a unique example of hate speech and absurd construction of social reality. Neomasculinity attempts to articulate many existing notions against prevailing progressive and egalitarian values of modern Western societies. Followers of Neomasculinity look up to romanticized images of the past as an ideal that should be followed. Both ideologies constitute a fringe part of the political spectrum and aren't present outside of the online sphere.
